"Vinified and matured in an egg-shaped vat, this is a white with length and complexity.

A cuvée that seduces with its complex, gourmand nose and floral bouquet. The attack is invigorating, followed by roundness and suppleness on the palate. The finish, with its fresh iodine notes, invites you to enjoy it with exotic cuisine or a seafood platter. A real treat!

Domaine rated (guide 2024) 1*Star (Stars in the making or quality winegrowers with a good level of production, you won't be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the domain :

Former restaurateurs in Alsace, Pierre and Mireille Mann gave in to the irrepressible urge to become winegrowers, setting up in 2005 in the maritime sector of the Fitou appellation. After three years in a cooperative winery, during which time they converted the vineyard to organic farming, they began production of Mas des Caprices in 2009. Most of the vineyard is located on the Leucate plateau, on the edge of the cliffs overlooking the sea, in a magnificent, unspoilt environment. A harmonious blend of thirst-quenching and more ambitious cuvées, the wines give pride of place to local grape varieties (carignan and grenache gris), combining ripeness and freshness of fruit. This is an address to discover first, a particularly coherent range, where freedom of tone is combined with precision of flavor.
